Inexpensive daily drive

Strengths of the product

Inexpensive SATA upgrade. Fantastic replacement for any mechanical drive. Great cost/MB for an SSD. Suitable for primary (boot) or secondary storage. Can use Samsung's Data Migration utility for seamless (and free) cloning of an existing drive.

Weaknesses of the product

Not the best alternative for enthusiasts. Somewhat lower endurance than TLC NAND drives.

Additional Comments

This is a fantastic mainstream SSD and will likely become one of the "go-to" drives for many people (the other being the excellent 860 EVO). There are some inherent performance compromises with the quad-level NAND being used with this drive but for most users, they will rarely be noticed. If you need a SATA SSD, you can't go wrong with this drive unless you are PC enthusiast looking for every bit of performance under any circumstances.
